任何对old-sc分享我们病态的依恋hool French restaurants will be pleased at the news, reported by Gael Greene, that the owner ofLe Madeleinemay be taking over the space recently vacated byRene Pujol. According to Gael, “there are still a few loose threads — investors to commit, the lease to negotiate,” but most of the Madeleine staff will be sticking with Toney Edwards, who ran the place for 28 years before losing the lease a few months ago. The two restaurants were similar in spirit during their long coexistence, and so the move makes a lot of sense — like Buddy Hackett replacing Jack Carter at a Friar’s roast, or salmon filling in for chicken at a wedding dinner.
